Category Four-wheeled toys
So earlier today I picked up the new(er) race car from Mitch Piper at Piper Motorsport. Mitch and his crew fabricate the best roll cages / safety equipment in the DC area. I have no problems writing Mitch a check for his work on a third car of mine. God knows, when I flipped ol' #72 out at Summit earlier this year, it was Mitch's cage that kept me in one piece (and not a smooshed one).
So at this point, having already installed the race motor in the new tub, Eddie and I have to reinstall the gauges and move the suspension over from the carcass of the old car. Then it's off to the paint booth for a shot of Honda's Monte Carlo Blue (covers the Insight in the US and the S2000 in Europe and Japan). Although I had hoped to have the car ready for MARRS IV the weekend of June 14-15, it looks as though I'm going to have to wait it out until Hyperfest at Summit Point, July 5 and 6.
I can't wait!
